The found footage film from Spain
According to Twitch newcomer (but a man who’s been on the horror scene for years) Scott Weinberg, Jason Blum and Brian Kavanaugh-Jones – two of the cats behind Paranormal Activity and Insidious – acquired the rights to the Spanish flick Atrocious.
The “found footage” import played to Slamdance Film Festival audiences and revealed what had occurred to a family at their summer home while a brother and sister investigated an urban legend. Fernando Barreda Luna directed.
What kind of timeline Blum and Kavanaugh-Jones are working with in terms of the rights is unknown. It could be a priority to remake the film right away or they might hold out until a few other productions, like Lords of Salem by Rob Zombie and Paranormal Activity 3 are done.
